Using the Digital Output and PFI Lines of the NI 9205/6 with Compact DAQ

Hardware: CompactDAQ>>Analog Input Modules>>NI 9205, CompactRIO>>Analog Input Modules>>NI 9205 D-Sub, CompactRIO>>Analog Input Modules>>NI 9206

Problem:
I have purchased the NI 9205/6 analog input module to use with a NI cDAQ-9172 chassis, and I noticed a Digital Output and PFI lines on the pinout. I noticed I can access the PFI line to use as a trigger, but I can't access either of these lines in my digital input or output task. How do I use them?

Solution:
You do not have access to these lines for digital input or output when using NI cDAQ-9172. The Digital Output and PFI lines of these modules are only available when using them in a cRIO chassis. In addition, the PFI line is input only for these modules when using with a cRIO chassis.
